Aus v NZ -Chappell Hadlee series III - MCG
-
Nicholls = not international quality.
This is a seriously weak batting lineup unfortunately. One of the top 3 gets 80 plus or we struggle to make 200.

Let's just all get out to Head. That's fine, not embarrassing at all.

Santner took a couple, so it's only fair

Another game, another fuck-all from Nicholls.
After Smithy decides to declare him slightly "AB-like" to the Australian audience.
Wot?
Yeah that's a waste of time. Nobody here follows rugby any more

If only that was who he meant...

I assumed it was that because any other comparison was meaningless
High alcoholic content in Smithy's pies tonight...
In other Black Caps news: another triump for Batting Coach Craig McMillan.
Who never seems to get the same scrutiny as the bowling coaches...

@Donsteppa McMillian really didnt seem like a player who would make a good batting coach - he went through very long form slumps as a player - where he wouldnt move his feet and prod the bat.
a technically very average player, who kept fucking around with his own technique for little reason, and without success. chubby face concealing little brain. the least likely batting coach out of any of that black caps side.

Looking at our stats for this series, only Guppy with a batting average of 64 comes out smelling of roses. Neesham has done pretty well averaging 54. Kane has a pretty ordinary series for him averaging 34. Munro averages 26 and Latham is next best with 11.
With the ball Boult gets a pass with 6 wickets at 30. Santner's bowling stats aren't bad, but his batting average of 5.66 is a major fail. Everyone else is ordinary to poor.

Ow fuck that had to hurt
There was a total lack of lube used in that whole series. We were comprehensively bullied and prison raped.
This is not a cattle thing, this is a selection and coaching issue. The BCs seem to have no idea what type of game they are trying to implement, individual skill levels have regressed because no one seems to have any idea on their role except perhaps Guppy
